Answer 2

Again, this would best be done by using Perl. A tutorial can be found at http://www.comp.leeds.ac.uk/Perl/basic.html.



I don't know if Perl has a square root function, but you can just use whatever power function (i believe it is **) to raise a number to the 1/2.



2 - you just have to try to open the file for reading, and then for writing and test if its successful or not. you can't rely on the `ls -al` command unless you have which group and user you are readily available to match



3 - there are string manip functions



4 - see 3.

Answer 3

Go through UNIX programming by DASS.

You will find most of these purpose commands. Check it first.
